Plot

Short Summary

Bo opens the container of black smoke and a being named Huginn emerges who claims he can bring Bo back to the Death Train. Bo makes a deal and leaves with him to find his ex-wife and brother to seek revenge on them, but this turns out to be a lie and Bo is forced to escape to Hell. While there, Bo is forced to play a game of riddles with Leviathan in order to win her freedom, but is told that someone she loves will die soon. Bo returns to face Huginn and his brother and with the help of Dyson and Lauren, forces them to take her back to the Death Train. Trick goes to seek help to recover what he believes are important memories and in doing so reveals that he is responsible for many deaths over his life and that he also was responsible for writing Rainer, also known as The Wanderer, out of history and in doing so, created everything that is happening in the current time. Kenzi demands answers from Trick but when he refuses, she searches Trick’s lair with Tamsin and finds Trick’s book of blood and uses some of Trick’s blood to be able to read it. Tamsin has a vision of her past where it is revealed that Trick used Tamsin in order to remove Rainer from history, making him wander outside of time for eternity. Bo returns to the Death Train and confronts a man there who appears to be The Wanderer, the two fighting a short time before Bo seems to fall to his control. Bo then returns to her friends and with Rainer at her side, claims that he is not her enemy or her father, but rather is her destiny.

Detailed Summary

The episode opens with some flashbacks to previous episodes which include: The Una Mens imprisoning Hale (K.C. Collins) for bringing Kenzi (Ksenia Solo) into their presence and Bo (Anna Silk) confronting Vex (Ksenia Solo) over her being Dark Fae, but he claiming to know nothing about that. Hale telling Kenzi that when he walks into a room, she is the only one he can think out while they share a kiss. Bo quick shot of Bo using the music box once owned by Ianka to try to unlock her memories and that is followed by the scene where Dyson and Bo discover the mark that was placed upon her by The Wanderer. This is followed by the Una Mens asking Trick (Richard Howland) why the Blood King was overthrown, the answer being he became corrupt and finally the last moments of the previous episode where Kenzi gave Bo the box the had been addressed to her and she is shown opening it to reveal the sealed bottle of black smoke which had been used to take her to The Wanderer previously.

The actual episode opens with the Death Train travelling through the darkness, destination unknown. The scene then moves to inside of the train where a man is seen wearing a welder's helmet and using a torch in an attempt to repair the train which seems to be falling apart. He pauses in his work and then a section of the train is ripped away revealing the darkness outside before he returns to his work. As the scene ends, the camera pans to the floor where the crown with Bo's name can be seen.

Bo is then seen at the Dal Riata with Kenzi, Dyson (Kris Holden-Ried), Lauren (Zoie Palmer) and Trick. Trick asks Bo "What's this about?" and Bo replies "It's about time." Bo tells the others that she is Dark Fae, and that she was taken by The Wanderer, who Bo has no idea who he is or what he wants, or what happened when she was with him before and she doesn't like that she has no answers. Bo then explains that she will "get to the bottom of this once and for all", says thank you to Kenzi, and then opens the box with the bottle of black smoke in it and removes it. Trick asks if Bo is out of her mind, but she warns him to stay back. Kenzi asks: "Okay wait a minute Patty Hurst, is that not the same that took you from this shit hole in the first place?" Bo's retort is: "Kenz, it you have a hell shoe in your boot collection, now's the time." When Kenzi tries to approach Bo, Dyson stops her and tells Kenzi that it is Bo's decision to make and Lauren announces that she agrees with Dyson on this point. As Bo thanks them for their support, Dyson tells the other that they must stand with Bo and "face this Wanderer together." Bo attempts to say something, but Trick interrupts saying: "I feel like I'm in a room of children!" Bo yells over the discussion which is ignoring her but is not head as Trick continues: "She could be taken again. Lost. We might not get her back this time!" Bo again tries to speak, but is again ignored as Lauren states: "She could also open that jar and..." But, before Lauren can finish her sentence, Kenzi grabs the jar away from Bo and moves away with it. Bo demands that Kenzi give the bottle back, but she refuses saying that she will not allow Bo to be taken again and tries to run away but Bo takes hold of her, pulling the bottle away and catching it before it shatters on the floor. Bo then confronts the others, telling them that not knowing the truth is "driving me crazy" and she opens the bottle, exclaiming: "This has to end now!" Trick arms himself with a broken mop handle and Kenzi takes a fork, commenting: "Oh what the hell" while Dyson and Lauren stand behind them both. Bo then opens the bottle and the black smoke slowly rises from it A tendril of the smoke touches Trick which makes him groan in pain before it moves away behind where Bo is standing and then forms into a man, dressed in black. Bo asks: "Friend or foe pal?" and the man replies: "By the look of you lot, I'd say you were betting on foe."
